FIG. 1(C) is an iF view. Note that 10 is a semiconductor wafer installed, and the semi-wrapped wafer 10 is further fixed by a fixing claw (not shown). Next, while maintaining a skin-heat condition of, for example, ~350°C, the internal pressure of the reaction vessel 1 is completely reduced by evacuation (e.g., 2 Torr), and ammonia (NH5) and silane (5iH4) are introduced as reaction gases from the gas introduction pipe 2. people The reaction gas introduction conditions are, for example, Nl (,, total 1200 SCCM,
S l l (Set 4 as 1508 CCM. Then, apply a high frequency voltage between adjacent carbon plates. For example, apply intermittent application of 450 kHz, 250 Ayu, and Daty Shio)
, a glow discharge is generated between the opposing electrode plates. Due to this discharge, the reactive gas (NH3,5iHa) between the opposing electrode plates is turned into plasma, and excited active reactive species are formed. And, due to the reaction between these activated reactive species (mostly Lanocal, some containing ions)! 11 Silicon nitride (813N4) is produced, and the Si and N4 are deposited on the semiconductor wafer 10 and grown into a silicon nitride film.

となる。By the way, insulating films produced by CVD are mostly formed as passivation films or interlayer insulating films, and are
Most polycrystalline silicon layers are also formed using the VD method in order to pattern them into wiring. Therefore, the semiconductor wafer 1 processed by the plasma CVD apparatus
Several layers of insulating films such as S h O2 films are immediately formed on the top surface of 0, and the insulating properties are high. For this reason, during vapor phase growth using a conventional plasma CVD apparatus, glow discharge is suppressed in the area where the semiconductor wafer 10 is installed, so that glow discharge starts around the wafer 10. Once the discharge is started, free electrons and ions are generated in the discharge region, which increases the conductivity and facilitates the discharge. As a result, discharge is increasingly suppressed in the area where the semiconductor wafer 10 is installed, so that the discharge current is concentrated in the periphery of the area where the semiconductor wafer 10 is installed. Therefore, the plasma generation region due to the glow discharge is localized around the semiconductor Weno-10, as indicated by diagonal lines in FIG. This phenomenon is particularly noticeable when the semiconductor pipes 10 are disposed facing each other as shown in the figure.

して行なわれるものである。In the growth of a silicon nitride film in a conventional plasma CVD apparatus, the activated reactive species of N1 (3 and S r H4) are transferred from the plasma region generated around the semiconductor wafer 10 to the semiconductor wafer 10 as shown by arrows in the figure. This is done by depositing Si3N4 which has diffused onto the wafer 10 and has reacted.

るという問題があった。However, when the pressure inside the reaction vessel 1 is about 2 Torr, the diffusion distance of the reactive species is not sufficiently large compared to the diameter of the semiconductor Weno-10, so the thickness of the CVD-grown film depends on the supply of the reactive species. Thick at the periphery of the wafer 100,
It becomes thinner in the center. In this way, variations in film thickness occur in the CVD grown film formed on the surface of the semiconductor wafer 10. For example, when growing a CVD film with a thickness of 1 μm, the variation in film thickness reaches ±2020 or more. There was a problem.
上記問題全解消する一つの方法として、反応容器1の内

種の拡散距離を大きくすることが考えられる。One possible way to solve all of the above problems is to increase the diffusion distance of reaction 6 by creating a high vacuum inside the reaction vessel 1.

The present invention provides a plasma CVD system capable of forming a VD film.

さく形成されている。FIG. 3 is a top view showing the main parts of a plasma CVD apparatus which is an embodiment of the present invention, which is an improvement of the conventional example shown in FIGS. 1(A) and 1(B) by applying the present invention. In the same figure,
Reference numeral 11 denotes a plate-shaped carbon susceptor, and a plurality of carbon susceptors 11 are placed in a quartz reaction vessel (not shown) in Fig. 1 (C
) are arranged in parallel as shown in the figure. A counterbore is provided on the entire surface of these carbon susceptors 1 for arranging the semiconductor wafers 10 to face each other. A mesh electrode 12 is arranged so as to be spaced apart from the semiconductor wafer 10 placed on the carbon susceptor 11 and cover the surface thereof. These opposing mesh electrodes 12.
12 are connected to a high frequency power source 13, respectively, so that high frequency power is supplied between both electrodes. That is, in this embodiment, the mesh electrodes 12 and 12 function as electrodes for glow discharge. The carbon susceptor 11゜9-no.1 merely functions as a support for the semiconductor wafer. Also, the width a of the gap portion (mesh) of the front 100-mesh electrode 12 is such that the width a of the gap portion (mesh) is large enough to absorb the reactive gas generated by the glow discharge. It is formed to be sufficiently smaller than the diffusion length of the active reactive species generated by plasma formation.

A reactive gas for VD film formation is introduced, and the mesh electrode 12.1
When a high frequency voltage is applied between 2, both %gl 2, 12
A glow discharge occurs between the two. In this case, semiconductor wafer 1
Since the insulation of 0 does not affect the discharge at all, glow discharge occurs uniformly in the area where the semiconductor wafer 10 is installed and the area where it is not installed. The reactive gas is turned into plasma by this glow discharge to generate active reactive species, which diffuse outward from the mesh voids of the mesh electrode 12. Since the distance between the mesh electrode 12 and the half-quad wafer 10 is sufficiently smaller σ than the diffusion length of the active reactive species, these diffused reactive species become CVD-grown substances and spread to the surface of the half-quad wafer 10. and grows into a CVD film. At this time, since the mesh width a in the mesh electrode 12 is sufficiently smaller than the diffusion length of the active reactive species, these reactive species are uniformly diffused over the entire surface of the semiconductor wafer 10, resulting in a uniform CVD film thickness. is formed. Glow eccentricity occurs in the electrode wire part and not in the mesh part, so if the mesh width a
If the diffusion length of the reactive species is larger than the diffusion length of the reactive species, the amount of diffusion of the reactive species to the mesh portion will be non-uniform, resulting in variations in the thickness of the CVD film.
